The Passing of Grouse Hunter

[Dean Romig]

I'm crushed...

I've talked with George a number of times, the most recent being about three or four weeks ago. We knew this would happen sooner rather than later and George talked about it too. He was incredibly brave and had an indomitable spirit and talked grouse and grouse hunting to the end. I loved to talk with him and will miss our chats terribly but I know his spirit will be where his heart has always been... in the hills and coverts that the Ruffed Grouse call home. I'll be listening for him out there while I'm traipsing the Autumn Uplands.
